[postgis-users] Compile errors with the latest SVN

[Bruce Rindahl]

I changed the location of the line you suggested but it had no effect.

In my /usr/local/include there are the following headers:
freetype2   geos      nad_list.h               projects.h  zlib.h
ft2build.h  geos.h    org_proj4_Projections.h  regex.h
gd.h        geos_c.h  proj_api.h               zconf.h

In the /usr/local/pgsql/include I have all the PostgreSQL headers:

ecpg_informix.h  internal            pg_config_os.h      pgtypes_timestamp.h
ecpgerrno.h      libpq               pgtypes_date.h      postgres_ext.h
ecpglib.h        libpq-fe.h          pgtypes_error.h     server
ecpgtype.h       pg_config.h         pgtypes_interval.h  sql3types.h
informix         pg_config_manual.h  pgtypes_numeric.h   sqlca.h

The pg_config.h gives the following versions of PostgreSQL:

/* Define to the full name of this package. */
#define PACKAGE_NAME "PostgreSQL"

/* Define to the full name and version of this package. */
#define PACKAGE_STRING "PostgreSQL 8.2devel"

/* Define to the one symbol short name of this package. */
#define PACKAGE_TARNAME "postgresql"

/* Define to the version of this package. */
#define PACKAGE_VERSION "8.2devel"

/* Define to the name of the default PostgreSQL service principal in
Kerberos.
   (--with-krb-srvnam=NAME) */
#define PG_KRB_SRVNAM "postgres"

/* PostgreSQL version as a string */
#define PG_VERSION "8.2devel"

/* PostgreSQL version as a number */
#define PG_VERSION_NUM 80200

/* A string containing the version number, platform, and C compiler */
#define PG_VERSION_STR "PostgreSQL 8.2devel on i686-pc-mingw32, compiled by
GCC gcc.exe (GCC) 3.4.4 (mingw special)"



Let me know if you need anymore information.
Thanks!
Bruce

Your compile command was:

I'm guessing that the 8.1.4 headers are under /usr/local/include
and the 8.2devel headers are under C:/msys/1.0/local/pgsql/include.
Is that right?  If so then the order of the -I options is causing
the build to find the 8.1.4 headers first, which results in errors
because USE_VERSION=82 tells the code to expect 8.2devel headers.
Try editing lwgeom/Makefile and moving the following line (line 69
or thereabouts) up a few lines to above the PROJ section:

override CFLAGS += $(PGBEINCLUDES) -DAUTOCACHE_BBOX=$(AUTOCACHE_BBOX)

Putting that line earlier should cause the 8.2devel headers to be
found first.
